Rounding the Year: A Daffodil in my Garden
Daffodils seem to be out everywhere after a few days of sunshine. The picture above shows one of many growing in my garden. They are an iconic flower of March and the weeks around the Spring Equinox. However, seeing them always makes me feel a little sad because this is the time of year that my mum died.
She loved the daffodils that grew around our house. Shortly before she died I picked a large bunch of them to put in a vase near her bed. Now, the sight of them reminds me of her, and the happy memories are tinged with lingering grief.
Sharing seasonal photos
Inspired by ideas in my book Rounding the Wheel of the Year, I share seasonal pictures, art, crafts, words and customs as well as a record of what’s happening in nature.
